A muscle is connected to a tendon through specialized structures called myotendinous junctions. These junctions are composed of collagen fibers that extend from the muscle tissue into the tendon, providing a strong and resilient connection between the two tissues. The myotendinous junction plays a crucial role in transmitting the force generated by the muscle to the tendon, allowing for movement and stabilization of the joints.
